Street tires for a drag race at the strip
Ok, we have a street car "hard tire" race at the track this weekend. No slicks or drag radials. Right now I'm running slicks and pulling times in the high 10's. Anybody have any idea if there is a street tire I can run that would get me close to my times now or anything I can do to a street tire that'll make it have enough grip for my power level on a prepped track?

There was a guy last weekend running in the high tens on a street tire. I thought someone told me on slicks its a nine second car. I can adjust when my spray comes on. Im not shooting off the line now ( still have the 10 bolt) but trying to hook up a street tire ???? I can soften the shocks, lower air pressure, add weight to the back of the car but without a good tire I'm toast
